Enlarge this image toggle caption Suleiman Mbatiah/AFP via Getty Images Suleiman Mbatiah/AFP via Getty Images Newly revealed instant messages sent between Boeing's then-chief technical pilot for the 737, Mark Forkner, and another technical pilot, Patrik Gustavsson, in November 2016 indicate that Forkner experienced similar problems with MCAS during a test session in a flight simulator. A Southwest Pilots Association statement said the document is "more evidence that Boeing misled pilots, government regulators and other aviation experts about the safety of the 737 MAX." Sponsor Message He says evidence already uncovered by his investigative committee points to a "systemic failure" inside Boeing as management ramped up pressure to develop and manufacture the 737 Max quickly to maximize profits.
